I want someone to clarify, if anybody can, That rock did not turn back because we sent someone to kick it And please don’t tell me it cleared off cos Gran gave it a ticket.’ * Another little nap saw Speedy hit the ozone layer And Turbo Gran pressed play on the ice cream vans jingle player And when all three chutes opened like inverted ice cream cones Half a dozen generals were screaming down their phones ‘Get that woman outa there, we need her to explain How she stopped that asteroid… before we go insane.’ But Gran had donned her jet pack and had landed on the roof She had some news to give them and she, thankfully, had proof * Turbo Gran was ushered in and what she had to say Would change our Earthly solitude forever and a day She said, ‘That rock flew slower than a standard meteor shower Yet asteroids approach at fifty thousand miles an hour ‘You thought it was an asteroid but it could not have been The first time that I saw it I could see it had a screen, I went to say hello like in some kind of wacko dream And sent them home with recipes for sprinkles and ice cream.’ Colonel Bigwig stammered, ‘Tell me! Did they look like friends’ Turbo Gran said, ‘Well I guess that really all depends, I’ve brought a souvenir that might enlighten all your doubts, These two critters wouldn’t go… they loved the smell of sprouts.’ In her hand, two rodents that were well encased in ice Turbo said, ‘They’re sleeping, they’ll be done in just a trice.’ Bigwig yelled, ‘An E.T. mouse, in fact you’ve smuggled two.’ And no-one seemed to notice when a tiny voice said, ‘Shrew!’ Turbo Gran said, ‘It was in our very first ice age, Their comrades came before the dinosaurs became the rage, So check their DNA, it’s not so difficult to do And you will find that here I have the ancestor of you, ‘You might have heard of freezer mice, well meet their distant cousins, They’re friends: they could have come in hoards, instead they came in dozens, They came to find their ancient friends whom once had come this way You’d marked them for dissection ’til they upped and ran away.’ Bigwig scowled, ‘A spaceman mouse, you’re right, I’ve seen a few, won’t change our world.’ but then a frozen mouse said, ‘We are SHREW!’ With one click of their fingers they grew tall, just like a man Then turned to face the colonel as they stood by Turbo Gran ‘From the dawn of time we’ve shared a joint biology, Could we, maybe, from today, share joint technology? Then shrew and man and Turbo Gran could formulate a plan To live the dream of sprout ice cream.’ And Gran said, ‘Sure, we can.’
